Podcast - Party time: Greek politics in flux ahead of next elections
Greece’s political landscape is shifting at remarkable speed. Alexis Tsipras’s new party, ELAS, has upended the opposition, destabilised SYRIZA, rattled PASOK, and pushed New Democracy into full campaign mode. With voters frustrated, trust low, and new actors entering the scene, the run‑up to the next elections is proving unusually volatile.
In this episode, Nick Malkoutzis is joined by MacroPolis co‑founder Yiannis Mouzakis and features editor Georgia Nakou to unpack the major developments:
– New Democracy’s stability‑focused messaging and internal anxieties
– ELAS’s rapid rise and organisational build‑out
– SYRIZA’s existential crisis
– PASOK’s strategic confusion
– The rise - and subsequent slide - of Maria Karystianou’s Elpida
As Greece heads toward elections, which are expected later this year or next spring, the political system is entering a new phase of flux. Yiannis and Georgia help us make sense of what’s driving this moment and what we should expect next.
